OAK FLAT -- Apache Stronghold's Wendsler Nosie's propane line was cut to his camper, where he usually sleeps at Oak Flat, protecting the Apache Ceremonial Place from a planned copper mine. 

"I've never bothered anybody," Wendsler said, pointing out that his efforts have been to show what mining is going to do to the environment, our land, our religion, environmental policies. "It's ugly."

"From Day one, they were never going to follow the laws."

"Now that we are defending the land religiously and, also to save the water for the southwest and Arizona, they go as far as doing this now, tampering with my propane, thinking I was here sleeping."

"I'm really grateful that Adelita Griijalva was having her peoples swearing in -- if I didn't attend that, I would have been sleeping here when they cut my propane," Nosie said.  He was attending Congresswoman Grijalva and the 'Peoples Swearing in,' at Pueblo High School in Tucson.

"They've gone a little bit too far, those who associate with Resolution Copper, you better tell your goons to back off, that's not right. It just shows you how clearly we're right in what we're doing.""

"Of course I'm upset, but God has given me another day," Nosie said, thanking everyone for their prayers.
